Webinar: Tax Schemes Reporting (MDR) – the new regulations

The reporting of tax schemes which meet the criteria set out in the Act is obligatory from 1 January 2019. There are 3 categories of entities which are obliged to report the schemes:

• promoters (e.g. tax advisors, lawyers, attorneys at-law, employees of financial institutions)
• beneficiaries (entities benefiting from the tax schemes)
• supporters (e.g. auditor, notary public, accountant, bank employee, financial director)

The reporting covers both cross-border and national schemes.

The new regulations introduced, inter alia, an obligation to re-report cross-border schemes. The changes also concern the special power of attorney and requirements related to signing the MDR-3 form.

We invite you to watch a recording of a free webinar, during which we discussed the most important provisions of the new Act and indicate issues which should be taken into account when preparing for MDR reporting.
